Choose Generic Orlistat or Branded Xenical - Same Effect
Orlistat vs Xenical: Price Comparison
When deciding how much to spend on orlistat, the price difference between generic and branded options is significant. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 for 4 weeks with code EDM10, whilst Xenical costs £38.69 for the same supply. Over a 12-week course, you could save £29.70 by choosing generic orlistat (£86.39) versus Xenical (£116.09).
Same Active Ingredient, Same Clinical Effect
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical amounts of the same active ingredient. They work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption through lipase enzyme inhibition. Clinical effectiveness is identical - the only difference is the manufacturer and price. Some patients prefer branded Xenical whilst others choose generic orlistat for better value.
